Holiday Music




What better way to get into the holiday spirit than listening to holiday Music?



Last week, Cassie was in her first guitar concert. After only 7 or 8 sessions, all the kids got up infront of the parents and played their Christmas music. Did they sound like pros? Of course not, they sounded like kids who are just learning their instruments and having fun! It was awesome!

The evening before that we saw The Trail Band play live at Forest Grove High School. That was a swinging concert! I highly recommend their new album too. Thank you to Jeanne for reserving the tickets for us!

Then over the weekend, we went to my Mom's choir concert. My Grandma and Grandpa Kaake came down from Seattle with my Aunt Becky and my cousin Emily. It was a great visit, although Grandpa wasn't feeling well and they had to cut the visit short.

But my Mom got to play the baritone Ukelele that my Dad made for her several years ago. It sounds great, and my Mom is very brave for playing with the choir. Mom, here is a message from your Dad- Go Beard!

Go Beard? I can only hope your mom is not growing one! I don't think she is. She looks very cute in the choir group. (I see her!) It looks like she is one of the best ones, because it looks like she is paying attention to the leader. That's where Cassie gets her great attention skills.
My "word verification" word to leave a comment is "exclutea." I love these words and I'm saving them. This is a good one. I think it's Latin for a posterior that sticks out quite a bit. ; )
